An Iowa staffer for Tim Pawlenty charged with trespassing and public intoxication has resigned.

Spokesman Alex Conant confirmed that Ben Foster submitted his resignation on Saturday, and it was accepted. Foster, 24, had been suspended from Pawlenty’s presidential exploratory committee for two weeks without pay following his arrest earlier this month. The police department reported that Foster was drunk when he attempted to break into a family’s home in Ankeny, Iowa.
